Tumblr User Demographics Display Affinity For Adult Content ☀
David Karp, founder of Tumblr, touts the stylish tumblelogging platform as “sexy as hell” but the design is not the only sexy thing about Tumblr these days. In fact, many of Tumblr’s most popular blogs are producing content for mature audiences only. Traffic data from Quantcast shows that 16/20 (80%) of the top blogs at Tumblr are primarily focused toward publishing adult content. What’s more, a few of those are quite disturbing and may even border on unlawful depending on the jurisdiction. It is currently unknown whether or not if Tumblr’s staff is aware of such activities.
